Update Video a.k.a. WHERE THE HECK HAVE I BEEN + my fave YouTube channels!

HEYYYYAAAA!!!!

Finally back, and am very sorry it took this long!! You have now idea how chaotic, stressful and cold the past few weeks have been!! We moved to a new apartment and of corse MANY MANY things were either not working or where just 50% working or just basically totally half assed...

The worst and most crippling issue was that our heating system was so old, it should have been in a museum...it wasn't working at all and the entire flat was like an igloo. AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL!

Whatever so I just made a video earlier today about what's been going on but MAINLY about the YouTube channels I check out every day. Now, I watch many different ones but THESE are the BEES KNEES!! They are entertaining, they teach great tips and give useful advise aaaannndd you will be watching videos that are NOT A WASTE OF TIME...although of corse I still love Keyboard Cat and Antoine Dodson song hahahaha ( If you don't know these CHECK them out..at least once )!!

Here is the video and below are the links to the channels!


GOSSMAKEUPARTIST:
Short and very informative videos. Goss seems to know his stuff on beauty and skincare and also combated acne and problematic skin, so is well educated in the topic and also does videos like "How to minimize pores with makeup" or "How to clear acne"... etc.
He uses a wide range of products, so I am sure there will be stuff that is affordable and will appeal to any age and budget.
Awesome advice on how to find dupes of high end products in drug stores , what products are rip offs and which ones are great value and quality...

PIXIWOO:
Brilliantly talented and lovely makeup artist sisters.
They mainly do celebrity inspired looks, but they do more red carpet or beauty campaign looks, rather than very "in your face" crazy music video makeup (though they have those too).
The looks they do are very suitable and appropriate I think for any age group and are super wearable.
They also use many different products, so you don't have to feel like everything has to be super expensive for it to look good (YES PEOPLE, some cheaper brands are great too!!!)

NIKKIETUTORIALS:
Fun and entertaining personality...she is talented and very nice. I think she seems so cool also because she isn't afraid to be herself, which I find very empowering and inspiring. I think today we live in a world where there are so much expectations of how you should look or whatever or else you get stamped as one or more of the following : Moron,Idiot,Ugly,Fat,Whore,Fag,Gay,Stupid...and the list goes on and on... Frankly I am just very tired of this "trend"... the people who do this and talk like this have NO CLUE the real damage they cause.
GETTING BACK TO THE POINT...
So, she uses loads of MAC which is great if you are very intrigued by their stuff , or if you are like me and always are a bit overwhelmed, her videos can help you narrow down what you are looking for.
The looks she does are more INTENSE and strong, so those of you looking for more statement makeup you will LOVE her channel! :) (If they are too crazy, you can always just pick out certain points of her looks and make it your own.

PETRILUDE:
The master of creative and drag looks! I don't even have anything to say..just watch his videos and be inspired!! YOU WILL!! PLUS we all know highlighting an contouring is what makes Miss Kimmie (Kardashian) and others (Tyra, Iman, J.Lo..etc) sooo glamourous and the only way to learn how to get those techniques down if you can pull off KILLER Drag makeup skills...!! Take notes!!:)

KANDEEJOHNSON:
Probably one of the cutest, sweetest people I have seen on the web. This woman is so cute! She does videos on makeup, hair, DIY projects, lifestyle...everything!! She is very motivating and inspiring! Great videos for all ages and styles! Lots of product reviews, tutorials...etc. I am telling you , if you are sad or feeling down Kandee will make you feel better... I don't know how she does it but ... I know after I watched her last XMAS video on how she decorated her house I felt like a kid again..just so inspiring and uplifting!:)

I'll try to do a post tomorrow too!! Tootles till then ;) xx
